Livermore is in darkness. The town electric lights have been turned off and the Trustees are fn a quandary because | the machinery that operated the plant has been taken out. It is all due to a fight between promo- ter P. Meyer and his creditors. Meyer contracted to light the town with elec- | tricity. He bought a gas engine from the Union Gas Engine Company of San Fran- cisco for $2000, but did not confe within $600 or $500 of paying for it. The company wearied of long delay and | then brought a suit, attached the engine and at last had it removed. As soon as the engine was taken out no more elec- tricity could be generated and the streets and the private residences that depended on the ‘current for illumination were dimmed. When Meyer made the contract with the town he had the Pacific Surety Com- | any give a bond for its fulfillment. The rustees have decided to begin proceed- | ings against the surety company. They | have notified the company that the town has been without street lights since Jan- uary 14, and that the company under the terms of the bond guarantees the comple- tion of the contract. | The lighting of the town will probably | be given to the Livermore Water and Power Company when it shall have in- stalled an_ electric plant. Until that 13 | done the town will remain in darkness, | because there is no avallable source of current supply. WEEDING OUT THIEVES | AMONG THE RECRUITS Officers of ovisi Provisional Battalions EKeep Close Watch on Men With “Lifting” Propensities. A crusade against ‘“rookies’” who suc- cumb to a desire to appropriate the prop- erty of their fellow soldlers is on at the Presidio. Among the recruits arriving daily there is bound to be one or two men who cannot resist - temptation, and to | weed these men out of the ranks of offi- cers and balance of the men are making every effort. Several courts-martial hava been held and a number of men dis. charged, “without honor,” as a result of | the court’s findings. Recruits Alexander Martin of A Com- any, and W. W. Loiseau of C Company, “irst’ Provisional Battalion, were sen: | tenced yesterday to dishonorable dis- | charge and confinement at hard labor for | one year at Alcatraz. Both men were de- | tected purloining articles of clothing from tents occupled by comrades. A serious case is that of Recruit J. Mar. tin of G Company, Second _Provisional Battalion, who was arrested yesterday 'and charged with stealing Government property. He was seen to enter the tent 1 of the first sergeant of his company, and | upon the return of the latter he reported the loss of five army revolvers, valued at 315 each. As the sergeant is responsible for the property he lost no time in report - ing the theft, and the investigation that followed led to the arrest of Martin, The charge is such a serlous one that it was pot deemed advisable to confine the prisoner in the tent guardhouse at the ramfi, and hre was sent to the brick prison {at the fort. . | (August B.

Campbell to direct the expedition to Sumatra to observe the total eclipse of the sun in April. The sun's disk will be wholly obscured for six and a half min- utes, an extraordinarily long period, and the opportunities for photographing the | corona and making spectroscopic observa- tions will be particularly favorable. This sclentific undertaking has been made possible through the generosity of William H. Crocker of San Francisco, who will defray all expenses. Ralph H.

P T COWES, Feb. 1.—The pathos of the thought Inspired lost nothing by a scru- tiny of the King. His features were ceared and bore the marks of grief. But in all that assemblage there will ever stand out one face—that of the German Emperor. Its tanned, almost olive con- tours were turned flercely toward the sun and his mustache-brushed upper lip en- hanced the firmness of his chin. It was apparent that the Emperor was under- strain, for his face twitched nervously. “Every inch a King," was the manner in which the German Emperor was referred to. Almost behind his Majesty was young | Duke Arthur of Connaught, perfect in figure and with a handsome face, quiver- ing mouth and nervous movements. ardly was there ime to recognize the individuality of these personages. includ- ing the tawny-bearced Prince Henry of Prussia and the clean-cut face of the | Duke of Connaught. before the most truly pathetic sight of the day came in view. It was a simple litie band in black, for all the world like the slsters of some re- ligious order mourning humbly for one of their number who had passed away. None was distinguishable from the others. They all wore plain black dresses with long crape veils, and they followed meek- 1y and with downeast heads. Yet the first was the Queen of England, and with her was the woman wno. if she lives, will also hold the proud title, and behind them walked the woman to whom every knee in England, however noble, is bowed in courtesy. There have been more magnificent pa- geants than the escorting of the body of Queen Victoria from the house where she died to the royal yacht, but never has there been witnessed in recent world his- tory a procession more remarkable in jts combination of pomp and splendor with grief and humility. LARGE BODY OF POLICE IS ORDERED OUT LONDON, Feb. 2, 6 a. m.—Tt is a bright, starlit morning and dry, but the forecast of the weather promises possible rain or some snow. The trodps frriving in Lon= don are nmow being breakfasted at the Olympia or in other large buildings, each receiving a large buttered roll, a German sausage and a pint of tea, which must serve until after thesfuneral cortege has assed, wheh another portable meal, r1':leul. ple, bread and cheese, will be dis- tributed previous to entraining for the fourney back to Aldershot and other oints. nSo great was the fear of a crush that a large body of police was ordered out at idnight to control and direct the ex- pected press of people. Those desiring to see the procession will need go be astir early, as all wheeled traf- fic will be stopped at 9 o'clock, although the coffin will not arrive until ¥wo hours later. At the same hour all the troops will be in position. . The War Office announces that the King wishes that flags should eontinue to fly at half-mast until sunset Monday evening. All_the officers and gentlemen who are to take part in to-day’s ceremony in Lon- don have received arders to wear cloaks, This will deprive the scene of a deal of the expected brilliancy. TWO RABBIiS - IN PRAISE OF DEAD QUEEN A chapter 'Parliamentary History During the 6’;:; of Queen Victoria” was the “subject which Rabbl Jacob Voor- sanger chose for his'sermon last night. In the delivery of his address he pald high tribute to England’s dead Queen. “It was a most fascinating chapter,” said the rabbl, *in that it placed in Vie- torfa's crown the most beautiful of all jewels—the jewel of religious freedom. During the era closed by the death of England’'s graclous Queen it became evi- dent that the genius of Uberty itself made its home among these people. Beneath the drapery of royalty existed the spirit of independence which gave to those of other than their bellefs a liberty that, whether political or civil, was the pride of the race. “From the time the Henrys began to develop feudal power they v‘lvxn compelled to give to the people freedom, and as thi remarkable people pr sed mo! fo ten, until finally ‘was tened out. ‘che Victo- rian era wi the mflmm?uon of t centuris effort in behalf of the Jewis! lish Pariiament passed = mfi'.

Her gra- clous Majesty, the Prince Consort and the Duke of Cambridge were the cause of the change in Peel's attitude, the public ut- terances of the Duke of Cambridge bring- ing to him a realization of our value as English citizens. When Nathaniel Roths- child was admitted to the peerage all questions as to the standing of the Jew in England were answered. Rothschild was allowed to take his oath on a Hebrew Bible and to eliminate the objectionable words in the oath. Such actions stand nls a monument to English love of jus- tice.” Rabbi Nieto also addressed his congre- gation on the close of the Victorian era and the justice administered to the Jew- ish race during the life of the noble Queen. The rabbi followed the treatment of the Jews in England. saying: ‘‘The his- tory of our race in England during the last sixty years is a tribute to the great- ness of Queen Victoria. Some say she was good rather than great, but I say she was sreater than all, for she subordinated her private desires for the good of the people under her.” ———— SERVICES HELD AT MONTEREY Interesting Ceremonies in ~Which British Subjects Join. MONTEREY, Feb. 1—British subjects resident hereabouts, the officers and men of British merchantmen now in this port and many of the leading citizens of Mon- terey and Pacific Grove united to-day in paying tribute to the memory of Eng- land’s Queen. The services were held to- day because two of the vessels participat- ing are obliged to leave before the hour appointed for the roval funeral to-mor- row. Both of the vessels—the San Diego, Captain Blackstead, and the Umbriur, Captain Hahn—have been at sea since Christmas, and, not having heard of the Queen’s death, came into port here yester- day with fldgs flying mast high. The grief of their men upon hearing the sad news was touching and was striking proof of the place the late Queen held in the hearts of all of her subjects. At 1:30 to-day a procession of boats from all the ships in the harbor, headed by a Burple-drnped barge containing the Fire epartment band, started from the outer- most_vessel, and, passing slowly around all the ' others, drew up to the wharf, where the funeral parade was formed. The line, in which were a number of local Epglishmen, officers and men from the ships, the band and townspeople, then marched to St. James Episcopal Church, where it was met by the officiating clergy- men, Revs. J. S. McGowan, C. M. Hoge of Monterey and Hobart Chetwood of Pa- cific Grove. There the funeral service of the English church was read. Dr. McGowan made a brief address, expres- sive of the mourning throughout the world for the great and grend woman who had departed, and emphasizing the fact that America, next to England, would feel her loss. The church was 'beautifully decorated with the royal purple and ropes of smilax and ferns and two portraits of the Queen occu prominent places on either side of th& chancel. This church is the one in which the Princess Louise worshiped during her stay in Monterey about twenty years ago. — Spanish Ship Gets in Line.

The present tour of the band is the long- est and most noted ever attempted by a musical organization. When it is com- pleted nearly all the most important cities of both Europe and America will have been visited. ~John Philip Sousa is the first American composer and conductor to achfeve international recognition and fa- vor. The band, which for years has retained practically 'the same personnel, is now in excellent form. Sousa has with him two. new soloists—Miss Blanche Duffield, a soprano, who is reputed to be of sur- passing beauty and to have an exception- ally sweet volce, and Miss Buckiin, vio- Iln?s( and artist of great power. The season at the Alhambra will include five evening and four matinee concerts, the dates being February 10, 13, 14, 15 and 6.
